All the previous talk about Orlandi's salary being the main reason for his departure must be wide of the mark because there is no way that Blackpool will be paying him top dollar.
I'm assuming that he's taken a pay cut to join Blackpool, so surely we could have retained him on lesser money, because what I've seen come through the door so far for the coming season hasn't inspired me.
Our current midfield looks workmanlike at best, without one player who adds that creative quality needed to unlock doors.

Let's hope the club have somebody better than Orlandi lined up otherwise we have missed a trick.

Given the quality of the medical and physio staff and facilities at the club now, you would hope they assessed him accurately as too high risk for injury.
Because as a fit player, he is quality.

Whilst it might be nice to know why, it probably would be unfair to the out going player to tell why. When a player has undoubted ability, and I think most would say that Orlandi has, but th eplayer is released, money and persistent injury issues come into play. Did we offload him to cut our outgoings, or did we release him because we couldn't rely on his availability, either or is now Blackpool's problem.

I wish him luck.

Letting Andy Orlandi go was a mistake in my book. I know he was injured for much of last season but he had an edge of class over many other players. A vision. A great long cross field pass. And a good dead ball man. Still, never mind. Good luck at Blackpool Andy.

Would have been good if the headline was ´Brighton sign a top notch forward´ BUT I am sure it will come.

Hi Mickey, as you say, 'IF,' he stays fit.

It seems to me that we have enough gambles running regarding the continued fitness of some of our retained players. Buckley, Kaz, CMS.
I list Kaz simply because I beleieve that there has to be a reason for him not to have been a starter on a more regular basis last season. It might be a question of nothing more than stamina, but surely that is something that should come right as the season progresses, but if that was the issue, then something is wrong.
CMS, well he is getting over a terrible injury, will he hold up, only time will tell.
Buckley, another who suffered repetitive injury last season, so again a gamble.

Letting a talented player go is a decision that has to be based on something, my guess is that his injury record was a major factor, a factor that becomes more important when we consider the gamble the other three I have named pose, pose in my humble opinion.

Undoubtedly talented player but never really impacted when he did return last season so can understand why he was released. Did some great things at the Amex and linked particularly well with Spanish Dave. Scored some the odd quality goal and missed some sitters but always enjoyed watching him. Good luck at Blackpool.

Orlandi no doubt was let go because of his fitness record and I guess likewise Buckley could be on ´borrowed´time. Kaz was in and out of the team last season or only played as a sub for similar reasons. If it is down to stamina then he should be put on a strong fitness regime. He has been playing football long enough now not to have stamina problems--or there is also a question mark over him.

You can't pour scorn on a player who is still trying to earn a living. It just ain't done.
The reasons for his release, which may have nothing to do with the player himself, should stay private and so extending onward good wishes is the professional way to go.

Agree, very easy to let your heart rule your head with players like Orlandi, I was a huge fan of his. No doubt the medical team have their say when players contracts are up for negotiation, couple that with salarys and some difficult decisions have to be made.

You can't pour scorn on a player who is still trying to earn a living. It just ain't done.
The reasons for his release, which may have nothing to do with the player himself, should stay private and so extending onward good wishes is the professional way to go.

'Hold it against you,' no of course not, there comes a time when everybody finds common ground, of course the north is a tad more common than the Sussex downs, so you do have a head start on me, but i'll catch up, one day.

The north is "a tad more common" and I have a "head start"...
You're at it again, but I'll refrain. I'm too busy walking the whippets....

Still think he could have done a job for us but the club obviously had it's reasons for letting him go........sometimes it might be nice to know why.

Whilst it might be nice to know why, it probably would be unfair to the out going player to tell why. When a player has undoubted ability, and I think most would say that Orlandi has, but th eplayer is released, money and persistent injury issues come into play. Did we offload him to cut our outgoings, or did we release him because we couldn't rely on his availability, either or is now Blackpool's problem.

I wish him luck.

Don't hold it against me, but I agree with you!

Orlandi was IMHO a very gifted player when fit, what i am more interested is how many games he plays for Blackpool this season, If they get 25 games out of him it would raise questions about our medical staff and fitness regime. If he keeps breaking down then vindication and foresight from the staff of BHA for letting him go.

A class player, shame about his injury problems.
Hope he has a successful season for Blackpool.
But also hope he has 2 poor games
